"Conservatives are not necessarily stupid, but most stupid people are conservative."- John Stuart Mill (1806-1873)

First example of stupidity; as a former "reporter" Duffy should know that the media is going to wring everything out of this that they can. It fills space and sells copy. So to hear him complain about his treatment over the childish and churlish comments about Williams and Ghiz like this:"

How long can you keep this angle going? Why don’t you talk about the budget? Why don’t you talk about the relationship between the provinces and the federal government? Why don’t you talk about things that matter to Canadians rather than try to trap me into saying something stupid so you’ll have another angle," Mr. Duffy said. "It’s just ridiculous. It’s childish."

makes me feel sorry for the fool.

Stupid is as stupid does part two is shown by this:

"Joe Ghiz (Robert Ghiz’s late father and former Island premier) knew what he was doing. Joe Ghiz was a very smart guy," Mr. Duffy said. "And I am afraid, Robert . . . well, anyway, I’ll just leave it at that."

I would advise him that if you find yourself in a hole, stop digging but it might go over his head.

"All the liberties enjoyed in America today were not bought with only one payment, but were purchased anew in many installments, regularly and periodically, by each new generation. History has shown that many men had tried to take away from others their basic human rights. Many others are trying to do the same thing today, and many more will try to do likewise in the future. Where there is wanton disregard for the rights and freedom of others, your own will soon be jeopardized too. Preservation of our liberties requires constant vigilance, energy, and self-sacrifice." - Y. C. Hong
